What you can expect

Get to know Banff National Park's Johnston Canyon on a guided hiking tour with opportunities to explore at your own pace. Drive along the scenic Bow Valley Parkway, hike with crampons/ice cleats, traverse bridges over frozen waterfalls, and discover a natural cave.

Start the adventure with pickup from select locations in Banff. Drive along the beautiful Bow Valley Parkway, with stops along the way at jaw-dropping viewpoints and local secret spots for wildlife sightings.

Upon arrival at Johnston Canyon, you'll be fitted with ice cleats and hiking poles before embarking on an easy 30-minute guided hike to the Lower Falls, along bridges suspended over the canyon. Walk over two frozen cascading waterfalls with pillars of blue ice surrounding you.

Along the way, witness daredevil ice climbers scaling the frozen canyon walls. Then, discover a natural cave with uninterrupted views of the frozen waterfalls.

From there, you'll have the chance to continue on your own to Upper Falls, a further 30-minute hike, to see the largest of the frozen waterfalls at Johnston Canyon. Alternatively, you can return with your guide to the van to relax with a hot drink.

At the end of your adventure, enjoy transport back to the Banff Train Station.
